powerLATE - Generalized Power Analysis for LATE
An implementation of the generalized power analysis for
the local average treatment effect (LATE), proposed by Bansak
(2020) <doi:10.1214/19-STS732>. Power analysis is in the
context of estimating the LATE (also known as the complier
average causal effect, or CACE), with calculations based on a
test of the null hypothesis that the LATE equals 0 with a
two-sided alternative. The method uses standardized effect
sizes to place a conservative bound on the power under minimal
assumptions. Package allows users to recover power, sample size
requirements, or minimum detectable effect sizes. Package also
allows users to work with absolute effects rather than effect
sizes, to specify an additional assumption to narrow the
bounds, and to incorporate covariate adjustment.
